On Saturday I got my mobile! It is an orange : ) Casio with a 2.1 megapixel camera and I can store music on it but I don`t know how much. There are many features for me to figure out and luckily, it is a bilingual phone but still, many messages and instructions are in Japanese. Exciting!

The screen displays these little penguin animations by default. They throw fish in the air and other fun things. I love it! The displays can also twist around and I can close my phone with the screen on the outside. I thought that feature would be really handy but actually I have not used it much yet.

I also bought a rice cooker.

More on things in a bit!

This is unacceptable, especially considering that it, out of all my precious ones, has the most obvious name coming. From today, the official name of my mobile is……………orange juice. Or “oj” for short but I`m debating whether I want to do that. I like saying “juice” too much. So orange juice can now feel at home with waffles, syrup, and the memory of pancakes, who is still in Vancouver and has possibly been exorcised from the body it was living in (by that I mean the PC was possibly reformatted…but the memory continues).
